Questions & Answers about بعد از نیش، لازم است که روی پوست خودتان پماد بمالید.
Why is the verb bemâlid (بمالید) in the subjunctive form here?
Because it follows the impersonal expression lâzem ast ke (it is necessary that). In Farsi, expressions of necessity, obligation, or suggestion require the following verb to be in the present subjunctive, because they describe an action that should happen rather than a stated fact.
How is the subjunctive verb bemâlid (بمالید) built?
It comes from the infinitive mâlidan (to rub). You take the present stem mâl, add the subjunctive prefix be-, and attach the formal or plural "you" ending -id, resulting in bemâlid.
What is the purpose of khod-etân (خودتان) in this sentence?
The word khod means "self," and the suffix -etân is the formal or plural "your." Together, they mean "your own." While you could simply say pust-etân (your skin), saying pust-e khod-etân emphasizes rubbing the ointment on "your own skin."
Does the word nish (نیش) refer specifically to a bee sting?
It can, but it is a broader term. It refers to a sting or bite from venomous creatures, like insects, scorpions, or snakes. Depending on the context, it can also mean the actual stinger or fang itself.
